Things appear to be heating up between MAFS star Ella Morgan and EastEnders actor Bobby Brazier – and it looks like the 20 year old is certainly her type.
In August last year, Ella, 29, opened up to OK! during an exclusive photoshoot about what her 'dream' partner would look like and what defining features she asked for when the experts – Mel Schilling, Paul C Brunson and Charlene Douglas – set out to find her perfect match.
The reality TV star said: "I asked for tall, good teeth and someone open-minded. You could look like the back end of a bus but as long as you've got good teeth, I'd probably date you."
And, of course, it's no secret that Bobby – who competed for the Glitterball Trophy on Strictly Come Dancing last year – has a pretty impressive smile on him.
It's also thought the actor – who has played Freddie Slater since 2022 – comes in at a towering 6 foot 2 inches in height.
Ella made history on MAFS last year as she became the first transgender participant in the TV show, which sees matched singles marry one another upon meeting. While Bobby has been a regular in Albert Square since 2022, playing Freddie Slater.
But the pair certainly sent heads turning on Sunday evening as they were snapped kissing at the star-studded TV BAFTAs. At the event's boozy afterparty at London's Royal Festival Hall, Ella and Bobby were reportedly seen locking lips with Ella in pictures obtained by The Sun.
OK! have contacted Ella and Bobby's representatives for comment.
Claiming that the pair had 'flirty banter' throughout the night, a source told the publication: “Bobby and Ella were going for it, it was a proper snog and he went back a couple of times for more."
They continued: "They were sharing flirty banter and then they pulled each other to one side for a snog by the bar. Later, they had their arms wrapped around each other for another snog, too.”
Bobby took part in Strictly at the tail-end of 2023, and was thought to have briefly dated his co-star on the show, Ellie Leach, who is known for her role in Coronation Street and bagged the Strictly prize with dance partner Vito Coppola.
Ellie and Bobby are thought to have split in late March, with reports that distance played a part in things fizzling out. Bobby was then linked to fellow EastEnders star Jazzy Phoenix, with reports that a friendship between them had turned romantic.
But shutting down the rumours as he took to the red carpet during the TV BAFTAs, Bobby told a reporter: "Jazzy's not my girlfriend, she's a sweetheart though." He then went on to call her a 'sweet girl' but said that they are just good friends.
